Mirror helps beat paralysis

or was the 'mirror' with respect to folks' pleading 'difficulty' with
respect to NDT's stuff? ...that they've not the 'time' to check everything,
as i didn't check everything in the refs John posted before replying to
John's posts? ...and, "See all the trouble that caused?"

well, if any of those folks'd offerred to come to my place, with all their
refs in-hand, to present their work to me, i'd've said, "come on down, i'll
make the 'time'."

i've so offered thousands and thousands of 'times'.

there's an easy way to handle all of this with respect to folks who work
'outside of the system'... have an annual 'crackpot science symposium'. the
fees that the presenters would pay would cover the costs of the professional
critics who'd criticize the work of folks like me. it'd be a break from the
routine of academia, and laboratories. the pros could would travel for free,
and get together, converse, socialize with their peers, get some
inter-disciplinary cross-pollination... all at no $ charge, and do this
criticism in return.

it's a simple, and Honorable, way to deal with stuff like NDT, done by us
'outsiders'.

beyond that, all i've really ever expected anyone to deal with is just the
stuff of AoK's "short paper" section... 5 pages... that's why AoK is written
as it's written. those 5 pages introduce NDT's reification of the
information-processing rationale of the phenomenon of decussation.

5 pages.

when a man's given his life to what's in them, no one can read and comment
upon 5 pages?

and as far as 'difficulty' goes, anyone in Neuroscience who 'cannot
comprehend' the contents of those 5 pages, IMO, needs to find a new
Profession... they are just taking up space that's better-filled by folks
who're more-inclined to the Science, no?

that's the way i see it... i've taught their stuff to lay-folks... to high
schoolers.

Science isn't a 'take-it-or-leave it' thing.

Science goes forward because men and women rise to the challenge.

and the challenge inherent in those 5 pages isn't difficult at all... it's
all just =fundamental= Neuroanatomy with which every Neuroscientist should
be intimate.

but look at what's in those 5 pages... Forgive me, please... the
most-significant 'event' that's occurred during the history of Science.

and all my offers to go to folks to present this stuff run into folks' being
'too busy'?

it doesn't compute... that ain't 'the reason'.

it's got to be something else, and i expect it's been something both
greed-filled and Murderous.

what's with that?!

we are =Human Beings=.

for goodness' sake, wake up in the Light of what's within you!

so, if that's what 'the mirror' is about, 'the mirror' is cracked, and it's
not me who's in need of 'looking' in it.

enough 'excuse making'.

let's =do= Science... in-person, before fair witnesses.
